A Sharp, Tactical Game with Lots of Forks

LetItRain

Here is a recent game I played you might enjoy. The opening is the Old Sicilian/Bowlder Attack (Where white plays bishop c4) and my opponent went for a "checkmate" on move 3.  I'd like to talk about the little fortress you can build, when you allow the queen to take on g7,and the knight on f6 works pretty well with the rook in this situation, but of course this opening is pretty bad for white anyway.

Next, I introduce you to the moment featuring at least one windmill technique. Although my opponent's defence was pretty poor I think the tactics that came up were nice and perhaps instructive to some beginners. I was able to come up with this knight fork, which protected my rook and attacked his queen, the game was 3min with no added time so we were playing pretty fast.

 

I think the move 29. Bc6 was pretty funny, threatening checkmate if the rook doesn't move and my opponent panicked a little bit cry.png 

There were a few exchanges in the centre when we were both checking each other with knights, even though my opponent had already clearly got in trouble, It was a pretty fun game to play and I hope you enjoy it.
